beginResponse() behavior

We put some logic in the overriden beginResponse() method that we only
wanted to run once when the page is loaded. It appears that sometime this
may possibly be getting run multiple times when the page loads. Is this
expected behavior for this method to be called multiple times, or is this a
bug (in 2.3)?

As an aside, I realize putting this logic in this method may be a bit of a
hack, is there a better place to put the logic?

Thanks,

Yes, it should get called on a render _and_ on a rewind.

prepareForRender() might work.

Most likely, overriding finishLoad() is the way to go.
